then   we will finish round2 of solid shell stitch by join the round by make  slip stitch in each of the first 3 stitch of the previous round until we are on the middle position of the first shell then ch1 and make sc in the same st of the chain 1 that we just make.

And we will repeat round 1 and 2 or the solid shell stitch until we reach   7.0 inch deep. or try it on  to see if it long enough to cover you head.
